I am new to Veeam and have purshased B&R Essentials plus.
My VMware environment:
2 ESXi5 servers connected to a Dell MD3200i iSCSI rack thru 2 iscsi switches.
vCenter server is vmware's own appliance (SuSe linux), running on one of the hosts.
Backup server is a physical win 2003 server.
For almost a week now i have tried o get direct SAN backup going but with no luck.
Tried to backup the vCenter server and a testserver running 2003 server.
Problem is the "good old"
"Unable to establish direct connection to the shared storage (SAN)."
I have the SAN disks connected via iSCSI initiator and they show nicely in disk management.
Have opened up a support case, #5154854 but nothing of result so far.
I was adviced to try the vcbsandbg-tool (got it from veem support) to determine if backup server can se the vmfs-signatures, and it sadly can't.
This is where i know that you like me to contacy SAN vendor for support and so i have, they haven't been able to come up with anything so far

Then i saw the forum post about VMFS-5 compability, i have indeed version 5.0.2.230 of B&R software.
Could this be a possibe cause, could the released patch help me?
How about vcbsandbg, should it be able see VMFS-5 signatures?
Any help would be greatly appriciated i'm starting to get a litte desperate.
